The Scavengers had traveled to a place called Shenkuu, a town that was like a combination of Japanese, Chinese, some Vietnamese, and maybe some Korean too. It was originally made by little intelligent creatures called Neopets. They are so cute! 😍

Um, sorry. Anyway, it was Sheik's turn to get groceries from the local market. She didn't mind. She rather liked the town. Traditional, yet up to date. Lively, yet relatively quiet.

Emphasis on "relatively".

???: Kekeke! Can't catch me angel boi!
???: Get back here you little crook!

Sheik heard and rolled her eyes. She thought it was just some kids messing around or something, judging from the sound of the voices. However, it seemed only seconds later that someone, wearing mostly white clothes, a brown hat and jacket tied around his neck, and pure purple hair wheezed by her, nearly ramming her from behind. Sheik only had a few seconds to gather her thoughts before whoever was chasing the first someone actually ran into her, knocking them both right over to the ground. The first someone sticked around just long enough to laugh at the scene, then quickly ran off before anyone was the wiser. Sheik didn't even fully see him before he ran away. She quickly gathered her senses while the someone who ran into her was gathering himself.

???: *groans* ...Ohmigosh! Are you ok miss? I-I didn't mean to run into you! I-
Sheik: I'm fine, thank you. What was that about?
???: Hm? Oh! Um, that little trouble maker is a prime suspect for a case I'm on, and I've been trying to catch him. He's been able to get away from me for three days now! H-here, let me help you up.

The young boy helped Sheik up and helped pick up her things. That's when she started taking in his features. He wore what seemed to be a pure white toga that went as far as just below the waist, though the back part of it went much further. The boy appeared to be wearing a black short sleeve shirt under the white clothing, otherwise barely visible. He also had a black short legged, um, shorts that looked almost skin tight. He wore a thin brown belt with a small gold triangular buckle, knee high brown sandles, and a gold laurel crown around his head. And he seemed so young as well. Not just his voice, but his face was almost like that of a child, yet he was as tall as she was; as a teenager. He had somewhat large eyes with a light purple color to the pupils, and his hair was a pure light brown. Sheik hadn't realized she was staring until he caught her.

???: Is something wrong miss?
Sheik: What- Oh! Sorry! I don't usually-
???: It's the wings isn't it? Yeah, most people kinda freak a little because of them.

She honestly hadn't noticed thos- wait, did he say wings?! He flapped them a little to show they were real, and... Sheik was stunned. They were like a doves pure white wings, the feathers equal in shape, size, and position. Sheik had seen pictures and stories and whispers of such beings with wings and young appearances, but she couldn't believe she was actually in the presence of one of these beings, one that Hyrule didn't know of. Was he really... an angel?

???: *chuckles nervously* Y-yeah, everyone freaks at first. Heck, I've had a few faint when they saw me. I can kinda see why some celebrities don't want to be as popular as they are sometimes. I-I didn't catch your name miss.
Sheik: 😕... Uh, um, it's Sheik. Sheik. Um, y-yours?
???: Pit K. Icarus, at your service😀! Nice to meet you Sheik😊! Say, that is the Sheikah crest on your outfit, correct?
Sheik: W-why yes. Have you visited Hyrule?
Pit: Oh yeah! Great place. Beautiful, majestic, and great food! Love going there whenever I can! It's nice meeting an actual Sheikah like you though. Let me guess, you're a warrior class?
Sheik: 😶*chuckles* Though I have the skill of one yes, I'm kinda stuck with the duty of a scholar. I like it though. You learn so many fascinating things. A-and it's nice to meet an actual... a-angel...
Pit: Aaww, go on...😶
Sheik: ...Oh! Shouldn't you be after that suspect of yours?!
Pit: Huh? Oh! Gah, we might as well save looking for him again for tomorrow. The "Phantom Thief" is a real good sneaker by-er. I need a break anywa-
Sheik: One mustn't put off what can be done today to that of tomorrow Pit! Tell you what, me and my friends may be able to help you with this "Phantom Thief".
Pit: Oh, um, that'd be terrific! I mean, (clears throat) if that's alright with you and your friends of course.
Sheik: I wouldn't suggest it otherwise. Come, they should be back at the wagon.

A little later

Harpus: -So then the dragonoid said "You're de-scaling me here"! *laughs uncontrollably* 😂
Joseph: ...Um...?
Jeff: Why are Bakugan jokes so confusing Harpus?
Harpus: Aw come on! That joke wasn't that hard to figure out even for ya humies!
Joseph: Guess we'd just have to be Bakugan to understand it better Harpus. 😅
Harpus: Yeah well, I still think- (ears twitch) Hang on.
Joseph: What?
Harpus: ...Sheik's coming back, and she's got guests with her. Sounds like one person but it's hard to tell from here.
Jeff: And I thought I was a good guard dog. (!)
Harpus: You better book it in the wagon Jeffery!
Jeff: My name is Jeff!😡
Harpus: Just get in the wagon already!
Joseph: Sheik! That you?
Sheik: Yeah, hang on!

The Scavengers preferred to settle in or near a wooded area just outside any town they visit, in fear that someone from town would stumble upon Jeff. Let's just say that's how the Rip Roarers learned the Scavengers' "little secret" as Ray always called it.

Sheik can into view soon enough, with her new friend following behind. Just that first look at the lad made Joseph swore he had seen him before. Wait, he looked like... no, couldn't be. Could it?

Pit: Oh, you with a Ravager group? That's cool!
Sheik: Everyone, I know it's a bit sudden, but Pit here needs some he-
Joseph: "Pit"?
Pit: I know, some people say it's a weird name but I-
Joseph: Hang on. You wouldn't happen to be related to Dark Pit, would you?
Pit: Oooh, yeah, I guess you can say we're related. Let me guess; you're a fan of the Goth Claws?
Joseph: Am I ever! They are what inspired me to be a Ravager! Wow!
Harpus: Oh boy, here we go.😒
Sheik: Oh! I thought the name sounded familiar from somewhere. How are you two related?
Pit: Doppelgangers. He's a doppelganger of me. Kinda my opposite self you know? And I know; he never mentioned me in the books right? *sigh* Pittoo hates me I swear.
Harpus: "Pittoo"?
Pit: Pit two. Pittoo. That's my nickname for him. He hates it when I call him that though. That's why he left. I'm kinda still surprised he joined a Ravager group considering he doesn't obey anyone other then himself, but then he is full of surprises.
Harpus: (clears throat) So what'cha here for hm?
Pit: Oh! Um, right. Sheik here said you may be able to help me with a case I'm on. There's this Phantom Thief that's been visiting town lately and he's the prime suspect of a theft that's occurred a few days ago. I haven't been able to catch him. Think you can help?
Joseph: Sure! Just tell us the details you have and I'm sure we can find this "Phantom Thief". What do we have to go on?
Pit: Well, the Phantom Thief isn't necessarily a thief in actuality. He's some kid named Kokichi who enjoys pranking people and cracking jokes all the time. However, there was a strand of purple hair found at the scene of the crime, and the only known person in the area that has purple hair is Kokichi. Plus he apparently tells people he's some "Ultimate Supreme Leader" of some evil organization, and though anyone can tell you that's an absolute lie, you can't help but be suspicious of that.
Harpus: "Ultimate Supreme Leader"? That's just stupid right there! Why make up such a lie!?
Pit: I'm told he's a notorious lier. Nearly every thing he says is a lie. But he is smart really. He's been able to hide from me for whole hours before I catch him trying to pull another prank on someone, and he apparently knows his way around Shenkuu because he has been able to lose me like that! *sigh* It's getting to be a real pain. Not going to lie myself though; some of the pranks he comes up with are real clever too.
Sheik: How can you commend the little thief of something wrong Pit? He's a troublesome teen just looking for attention!
Pit: U-um, I-I wasn't! I-I was just saying... Uh, h-he could prank just about anyone! *chuckles nervously*😖
Joseph: Welp, he won't be stopped with us just standing around talking. We'll help you Pit with this kid!
Pit: R-really!? Thank you thank you! I'd appreciate all the help I can get!
Harpus: Meh, it's kinda our job. So any idea hows we find this little brat?
Pit: Uhhh, no clue really😓.
Sheik: Hmmm... We could try mapping out all the places he has already been. He won't want to show up someplace he's already been once. There would be people there looking for him.
Pit: Uh... Maybe that's what he wants us to think! Y-yeah, maybe he wants us to show up someplace he hasn't been, where in fact he'll show up someplace he's already been! O-or better yet-
Sheik: Pit.
Pit: ...Y-yes?😶
Sheik: If this kid is as clever as you say he is, then maybe it's best one of us go back to Shenkuu and watch for him, hm? How about you go back and do that Pit? After all, he may be expecting you, but not us. You can keep him busy until we come up with a way to trap him, hm?
Pit: Uh... A-alright. I-I'll do that...😖

Pit seemed a little discouraged from being basically told to leave, but he did as told like a soldier and headed back to Shenkuu. Joseph could tell Pit was a bit... quirky, at best.

Joseph: Sheik, I think he was just trying to help.
Sheik: What? Oh! I know, but someone does need to keep an eye on things back in town in case this "Phantom Thief" shows again. I didn't mean to make it seem like I didn't want him around or anything. Oh Nayru, he must think of me like a ignorant Goron or something...
Harpus: And you guys say may jokes are confusing😒. Right, any plans to catch this creep?
Sheik: None at present, but perhaps we may be able to track him down. I'm sure Pit will inform us when the theif next shows. It's just a matter of patience now. Perhaps we should go into town ourselves and help Pit look around.
Harpus: I'm down with it.
Joseph: Sounds like a plan. Oh, wait. Jeff! We're-
Jeff: I can hear Joseph. You guys go on and look for this idiot. Let me know how he pays for it.
Sheik: Alright, but don't go wondering off you hear Jeff? We don't want you getting into any trouble.
Jeff: Yes mom, I hear you!😡 Jeez.
Harpus: *laughs* 😂 Sometimes you two just crack me up!
Joseph: *chuckles* Don't worry Sheik. I think that's just his way of saying he knows better. We'll be back soon Jeff!

The three of them went to catch up with Pit so they could try to find this "Phantom Thief" together. Jeff stepped back out of the wagon and tried to keep himself preoccupied with this, that, or the other. It wasn't very good when the others left him there alone. Not that he didn't want to be alone sometimes. It's just that... being left without anything to do or have anyone around seemed to make Jeff... on edge, I guess you'd put it. It almost hurt him even. Physically hurt him I mean. Perhaps one of these days he'll get an answer to it all. He figured it'd be a painful trip to it, a painful truth to be told, but as they say,"the truth shall set you free," and Jeff seriously needed some freedom. He just wasn't the kind of person to not do anything, you know?

Wait. Jeff felt watched. He got up and looked around. No, nothing... yet. Maybe it was just some animals or something. No... they would've ran off from Jeff's movements if it was animals. Something's up alright.

Later

Nothing. Joseph and Pit couldn't find anything out about the Phantom's whereabouts. Harpus searched from the air, but to no avail. Even with Sheik's tracking skills, they couldn't find the Phantom Thief. It's also as if he disappeared, and Pit stated that this Kokichi character was the kind of guy to give up when he's on a roll. No, he couldn't have run off. However, when they vot back to their campsite, they were met with an... interesting surprise.

Jeff was covered in purple paint, there was some kid tied to a tree, and Jeff was mad as H*ll. Pit recognized the kid as none other than the Phantom Thief himself, Kokichi Ouma. He must've tried pranking Jeff while they were gone and, well, things went badly.

Kokichi: Oh hello there! Can you guys tell this mad boi that it was just a prank-
Jeff: JUST A PRANK?! LOOK AT ME I'M COVERED IN PAINT! 😠
Joseph: Jeff! I don't think wrapping a rope around him and a tree isn't a good way to settle these sort of-
Jeff: Are you kidding?! I would've had this paint off long before it dried if this little brat didn't keep trying to escape!
Kokichi: Why shouldn't I? I'm being held against my will here-
Jeff: ONE MORE WORD AND I'LL GUT YOUR EYES OUT!😠
Sheik: Jeff-
Jeff: WHAT!? I can't defend myself against some idiot who's shorter then everyone else? You know what, forget it! You guys can have him. I'm going to try to get this paint off.

Jeff walked off to a nearby pond to try and get the paint off him. Since it was already dry it was going to be hard to get it all out.

Joseph and the others explained to Pit about Jeff and how they were trying to prove his innocence. They had to keep him hidden in case someone would try to turn him in. After all, he had a good bounty on him, and there's no telling who all's greedy enough to blindly turn Jeff in. Plus there really hasn't been much to prove Jeff was this serial killer the posters would say he was. Pit surprisingly took it all in good.

Pit: Wh-what can I say? Everyone's innocent until proven guilty right? *nervously chuckles* 😅
Harpus: Ain't dat the other way a-
Sheik: (elbows Harpus)
Harpus: Ow! What?
Sheik: (rolls eyes) We're eternally thankful you understand with Pit. We agree completely.
Kokichi: So do I! Sooo why don't ya'll untie me now and I'll be on my merry way! I'll completely forget all this even happened! Won't say a word about Jeff or any of it!😆
Pit: You. We've been looking for you for the WHOLE DAY! You're a primary suspect, a notorious trouble maker, you trespassed on private space, AND you are an infamous liar! Admit it!😡
Kokichi: Ok ok, I lied. B-but a "prime suspect"? Me? Why would I be a suspect in any case? What's the charge?
Pit: Breaking and entering, theft, and resisting arrest.
Kokichi: Say what?! I would NEVER do that! What evidence have you against me?
Pit: How about a strand of purple hair? No else in town has purple hair but YOU. Explain that!
Kokichi: Uh... Oh! *laughs* This is a misunderstanding ya hear? Yeah, a FRIEND of mine did that, not me. Yeah, he looks like me- minus my good looks of course- and he happens to have a thing for stealing. He probably wanted to prank me and things took a wrong turn and here I am in trouble with the authorities while he's off cackling outside town waiting to see when I land in the big house. Y-yeah, that's it! Just a misunderstanding! *nervously chuckles*
Pit: 😡
Kokichi: 😕... You seriously don't believe me do ya?
Harpus: Ya lie, ya prank, ya probably cheat. Why shouldn't we believe you!? Besides, meh wings are still sore from fly'n for hours!
Kokichi: I am terribly, terribly sorry about that- and that's the truth- but really, I didn't do it! For one thing I never actually steal anything! Just ask my friends; they'll tell you!
Joseph: What friends?
Kokichi: L-like the friend who framed me! That's who!
Joseph: Some friend.
Sheik: Look. Unless we can prove otherwise, YOU are being targeted as the suspect. See why it doesn't pay to lie all the time "Phantom Thief"?
Harpus: Yeah! You done lied yourself inta trouble and you can't get out! Can ya?
Pit: Face it Kokichi; you've been caught and you can't hide.
Kokichi: BUT I'M SERIOUS! I'M BEING COMPLETELY F**KING SERIOUS! I DIDN'T DO IT! I SWEAR! God you're really pissing me off.😡
Joseph: And you need to take a chill pill koki.

Kokichi continued to say he wasn't the culprit. That he wasn't the thief. He just called himself the Phantom Thief because it sounded cool, that's all. Joseph didn't know whether he was actually telling the truth or lying again given Kokichi's lying streak. Jeff eventually came back from washing his hair down and out. He still had a majority of paint on him but at least he managed to get it out of his hair. He was drying it off with a towel when he came in on the conversation between everyone and Kokichi.

Jeff: Now hang on. Let me see if I got this right. What evidence you got against him angel boy?
Pit: Well, the thing that tipped us off was the strand of purple hair we found at the scene of the crime. Only person known around Shenkuu with purple hair is Kokichi. Kokichi is even more likely to have done the deed since he's a notorious lier, prankster, and trouble maker.
Jeff: Have you had the strand of hair tested?
Pit: Um... No but-
Jeff: Well there you go right there! You don't even know if the hair's dyed or even human! The rest of the prosecution is based off of what the kid's done, not off actual fact of whether he was even there! I bet ya $20 that the hair isn't even human. Just have it tested, compare it to Kokichi's hair, and see what comes up! That'll show ya the answer. Geez, just like how people think I'm a killer when for all I know I was framed by someone who didn't like my looks.

Joseph hadn't thought of that honestly. He was still undecided on Kokichi's innocence,  but after what Jeff said he actually felt confident that Kokichi was innocent. Pit was clearly shamed by what Jeff said, especially after what pit himself had said of Jeff. And though not as clearly, Sheik was shamed as well. Harpus would say she was undecided the whole time, but deep down she was shamed too. Kokichi himself was shocked. He just pranked Jeff for pete's sake! And here Jeff went practically saving his hide. Was he this much of a nut case or what?!

Joseph: ...Well, I'd say Jeff had a fair point. Pit, maybe it's best you go ahead and advise the authorities a DNA test be done on the hair sample. It'll take another few days before we get the results back.
Pit: Hm? Oh, oh, um... Right. I-I'm going to need some of your hair so they can see if the strand of hair we found is a match Kokichi. Mind?
Kokichi: Weeeelllll.... Okay, but only a small snip.
Pit: That'll work.
Joseph: Just to be on the safe side we'll keep Kokichi here with us until the test results come back.
Pit: Sounds good by me. Guess I'll check back later. Um, see ya'll then I guess.

Pit skipped off towards Shenkuu to do his part. Sheik seemed to turn and hide her face further into the cloth she already hid her face with. She must've taken this quick judgment thing harshly. Then again the Sheikah were always a proud race and a dedicated race and all. That must be a lot of responsibility Sheik has to live uo to.

Joseph: Sheik? You're alright?
Sheik: 😳 I-I guess... I never felt so... so...
Harpus: Wrong?
Joseph: *mouthing* Harpus!
Sheik: ...*sigh* ... Sounds about right...
Jeff: See? Ya ain't so tough after all.
Sheik: Shut up.
Kokichi: This is sweet and all, but can someone seriously untie me? I won't run I promise.
Harpus: Ya better not. I could catch ya pretty easy with these talons of mine. They ain't just for show you know.
Joseph: I welcome ya to try getting away Kokichi. Really. Harpus is a fighter in the arena games, and Sheik's a Sheikah of experience, and well, you've seen what Jeff's capable of. Just try escaping with all three of them around.
Kokichi: Oh I promise I wouldn't! You untie me and help prove my innocence, I'll always place my bets on the harpy lady! And that ain't no lie! Please? The rope's really getting to me here.
Joseph: Let him out Sheik. I trust he won't escape with all of us watching him.

Days passed, and sure enough Kokichi didn't escape. They had to keep him around. For one thing he was the prime(and only)suspect in the case. If it turned out he qas responsible for the deed, they could get him to the authorities easily. For second if he wasn't responsible and he was right about someone else being the culprit, he could lead them to the would-be suspect. Plus it was safer for Jeff to have Kokichi stay with them, since they had no clue whether he'd tell someone about Jeff. Better safe than sorry you know. Pit eventually came back with a paper in his hands, suggesting it was the results of the test.

Jeff: Well? What's the result?
Pit: Well. The hair we found... wasn't Kokichi's after all. Sorry for the trouble Kokichi.
Kokichi: (Laughs) Aalllright! I hate to say I told ya'll so... But I told ya so!
Harpus: Yeah yeah, you got us. So if he didn't do it, who did?
Sheik: Kokichi, you said you'd lead us to that "friend" of yours who supposedly framed you. Up for it?
Kokichi: Sure! It'll be a good way to get back at the crocey for this.
Jeff: "Crocey"?
Kokichi: You'll see. I'll show ya'll!

Later

Kokichi: (knocks door) Heeey Crocey! It's your good pal Kokichi! Ya there?
???: O' course Ouma buddy! Kekeke.

He door opened and on the other side was a kinda short "living" crocodile skeleton with gold fillings in his jaws and wild purple hair like Kokichi's. His name is Crocavile, an infamous liar and an actual thief himself from Skylands.

Crocavile: Been a while Ouma! I've been hearing you were being chased by the authorities for somethin'. What's up with that?
Kokichi: Oh yeah, they've been chasing me, but you know me! Slippery enough to get away from them! Hehe!
Crocavile: *Cackles* Boi you must be in trouble! What'cha do what'cha do?!
Kokichi: Me? Oh no. Apparently someone stole something and they think I'm the culprit! Can you believe that? Me, a honest to goodness prankster, being accused of stealing something! The nerve of them!
Crocavile: Oh dang! What a crying shame! Welp, least ya still here! You should probably skip town while-
Kokichi: Wait a minute there crocey. Now you know I know when you're lying and wow, you're burning here! Come on, you know something don't cha?
Crocavile: Weeeellllll...
Kokichi: Come on! Spill it! I'm your friend I ain't gonna tell no one!
Crocavile: Mmmm.... Guess!
Kokichi: Oooohhhh... Knowing you you probably... *fake gasp* No! You didn't! You were the one who stole that stuff that got me in trouble aren't you?
Crocavile: Yeppers! Hahahaha! And I can't lie; I framed you on purpose! Hahaha!I thought since you and I have the same hairstyle and color I figured "hey, this'll make a great prank on Kokichi-san!" So I did it! *laughs hysterically*😂
Kokichi: Haha! It WAS a good prank! 😂
Crocavile: And hey, if they do figure out it's me, don't worry about it. I got connections that'll break me out. You go on and skip town when ya want!😂
Kokichi: If you say so Vile!😆 But hey, let's actually talk like pals before I do that!

They talked for nearly hours of good fun. They were like peas in a pod. Eventually Kokichi decided it was time to leave and said farewell to Crocavile. After walking a distance however, he stopped and whistled a little something. Then Joseph and them came out of the bushes near him.

Harpus: What took ya so long?!
Kokichi: Hey, he's not just a crook; he's my friend. Had to hang wih him a bit and play catch up. Is that so wrong?
Joseph: Again, some friend.
Pit: Got the tape?
Kokichi: (pulls out a recorder) Do crocs have pointed snouts? Here. Make sure the authorities don't rough him up too hard.
Sheik: Are you not mad at him? I mean, he FRAMED you for something you didn't do!
Kokichi: Mad? Naw! We do this kind of stuff ALL the time! Though I'll admit it's never been this extreme, but hey! No real harm done right!?😀
Jeff: Says a guy who poured purple paint all over me.😡 And while I'm at it, you better not say anything about me or I'll personally-
Kokichi: What? Kill me? Oooo, very scary. You're trying to prove your innocence remember? Killing me will make you look worse. Besides, who's gonna believe me about anything? Let alone about seeing some notorious "killer" with some Ravager group? Trust me; this kid ain't going to get that truth very far. Welp, see ya! Gotta get on home before my soda drinks defrost much! Cheers!😆 Kekeke! (Runs off)
Pit: Hey!
Joseph: Let him leave. It's this Crocavile guy we need to get now.
Pit: R-right! I'll just show this tape to the authorities. Boy they'll really flip out when they see this!

And that happened. Eventually Crocavile was caught by Pit himself and taken to the station for questioning. He didn't seem so surprised that he was caught. Wait until his "connections" try to get him out though. Then he'll be surprised.

Sheik: Well, I'm glad things turned out well Pit.
Pit: W-well, I probably wouldn't have been able to do without you and your friends Sheik.
Sheik: Happy to help Pit. And hey, you're a good person. Then again you're an angel so... I suppose you get that a lot.
Pit: I don't know. I try. Being an angel can be hard sometimes. You've got to always be ready for duty, but I can take it. I wear that badge with honor really!
Sheik: *chuckles* I can agree with that. Us Sheikah have to keep ready and prepared for whenever Hyrule needs us. We wear such "badge" with high honor as well.
Pit: Yeah, so I've noticed!😊
Sheik: So... What's your next case? Out of curiosity.
Pit: Hm? Oh, um, I don't actually "work" here honestly. I was just passing by trying the good food when I heard the authorities were having some trouble finding Kokichi and well, me being the angel I am, decided to help no charge.
Sheik: So you have no real job at the moment?
Pit: Naw. I've been trying some jobs here and there, but I never really got much of a thrill out of them. Not yet anyway. Part of the reason I travel.
Sheik: I see. You seek adventure and heroics as this "thrill" you call it?
Pit: Oh absolutely! An angel is always ready to help and serve anyone who needs it, and what better way to do that is doing something adventurous? Besides, if my doppelganger can find a good job and be well liked, why shouldn't I?
Sheik: *chuckles* So... Have you thought of being a Ravager?
Pit: Yeah... but I don't know many people who would want to join me or how to start something like that. I mean, I know you can go solo if you wanted, but absolutely that's not what I want. Besides, I like being a team member. Me and Pittoo used to fight monsters together all the time. Well, he was sort of forced to work with me for whatever good reason he had but still, we made a good team! Besides, you get friends being in a team, you know?
Sheik: Yeah, I know. So... If you had the opportunity, would you join a Ravager group?
Pit: Sure! But not just any group of course. Good people, good income, good food obviously, a- Wait. Why are you so interested in me all of a sudden?
Sheik: Well... Joseph's been thinking we could use another fighter for our group. He's always been concerned about us exhausting ourselves. Someone to help keep Jeff out of harm and such.
Pit: Yeah, I guess you could always use another member. The more the merrier they say!
Sheik: Yes, but obviously not just anyone. Someone trustworthy for Jeff's sake, well trained in combat to help me practice my skills, someone energetic and cheerful to keep up with Harpus, and maybe a sensitive personality to help Joseph from over-worrying all the time.
Pit: Sounds like you talked it all out pretty well She- Wait... What's that gotta do with me?
Sheik: ...Pit... I'm talking about you being with us. You realize that right?
Pit: M-me?! Y-you really want some guy like me with ya'll?! I-I mean, I know I'm not the smartest or strongest of angels. I-
Sheik: Pit! We don't care if you're not the smartest or strongest. We talked about it and we think you would make a valuable member to us. Besides, we figured you'd want to get even with that doppelganger of yours right? Of course, if you don't want to come with us-
Pit: A-are you kidding? I'd LOVE to! If you need me, then who's Pit K. Icarus to decline!? Count me in all the way!😀

And thus began a fresh new friendship.

---

Finally done. I would've gotten this done sooner but between school, my laziness, and recent personal family problems, it took longer then wanted. However, I am still working as much as I can on my books. Heck, I want to get my main story out there soon, but due to me currently working on multiple other books at the moment I'm stuck. Help me out here guys😖.

Anyway, please keep giving me ideas for little adventures the Scavengers could go on! I need ideas to introduce characters and stuff!

With that out of the way, let me show you the new characters. Ya'll who've read my Year of the Sun Dragon book will know Crocavile, one of my Skylanders OCs. Read the book to really get to know him, if you haven't already. And yes, this does mean Skylands is one of the kingdoms in this AU; they're just kinda exclusive since Skylands is a large group of floating islands and all. Still trying to figure it all out actually. This AU is an experimental sort of thing for me. Anyway...

Pit, Nintendo's special little angel from the Kid Icarus series of games. Also known as that angel kid in Smash Bros. His my favorite Nintendo character. He's goofy, affectionate, brave, and flat out adorable!

Then there's prankster Kokichi from the Danganronpa series; specifically Danganronpa V3: Killing Harmony. Kokichi is everyone's favorite Danganronpa character and quite frankly he is the only reason I got into the Danganronpa series. And before you ask, Kokichi is the main inspiration for Crocavile, so of course they're similar in looks and personality. Gotta love this kid!😊

Welp, unless I'm missing something, that should be it for now! Cheers!🐉
